Here’s one for all you US/Canada-based truckers out there! Gotta copy on that good buddy?
The Audiovox Anywhere will serve as a navigation device in the daytime and, when you’ve parked up for the evening you can use it as your Internet-connected PC and media player. The Audiovox Anywhere is "…the only Ultra Mobile PC product that gives the user GPS navigation, Bluetooth and Windows, in a package smaller than a conventional laptop." Say Audiovox. Its a debatable claim but we’ll let it go.
From a technical angle, its a VIA C7-M based ultra mobile PC with full navigation suite and car mount and it retails for $1500. I hope Audiovox don’t try and market it alongside $300 dedicated navigation units or the Nokia N810 because they are going to have a hard time explaining why it costs 5 times as much! Like I said, its probably one for truckers, coach drivers and taxis.
The companies product web page is here but the detail tabs don’t seem to work for me. More technical specs and links for this item are in the UMPCPortal product page for the Uren, which is the same device under a different brand. See you on the flip-side. I’m gone.
